So, I’m pushing this CD/DVD set to anyone who wants to up their collection. It features live renditions of some personal favorites like “Good Life,” “Touch The Sky” and “Heartless” plus 3 bonus tracks including my jam “Homecoming.”

Blend-tape expert DJ Noodles flipped a bunch of Drake acapellas for Ready to Fly, a collection of mash-ups reinterpreting songs by the Toronto native. Presented by Broken Cool and Dat Piff, it features Jay-Z, UGK, Kanye West, John Legend, Trey Songz, and of course the Martian.

Bump this as you throw on your trusty hump-day cardigan.

Download link and back cover with track list below. Shout to the good homie Adam, Enjoy!

Looks like Blueprint 3 sprung a serious leak this morning, as features with Kanye and J Cole have hit the ‘nets. I’ll post the links but I haven’t heard ’em yet since I’m at the executive office.

Another bit of info dropped today about the September 11th concert Hov is throwing at MSG. According to Answer the Call, tickets go on sale Sept. 8 and are $50. You’ll know more when I do.

[Edit] The internet presale starts at 9 AM EST on Sept. 8 for Citi Card members only, then at noon they go on sale to the public. I knew that college credit card would pay off sometime! Check out Ticketmaster for more info.

I caught Sean Carter on Real Time with Bill Maher onHBO last night over at my homies crib, enjoyed it a lot.

Hov goes into how he puts together a track, hip-hop culture in general, calls Kanye a “genius” and Biggie the best to ever do it (besides himslf) then receives a book of every single lyric he’s ever spit. Hov’s laugh just makes me want to crack up every time!
